Set in London and Ghana across three summers, Small Worlds is an intimate and powerful exploration of a son-father relationship, music, and searching for meaning from the acclaimed author of Open Water. Enriching and heartfelt, Caleb Azumah Nelson’s second novel is a captivating coming-of-age, executed in soaringly beautiful prose.

 

“Emotionally challenging yet exceptionally healing, Small Worlds feels like a balm: honest as it is about the riches and the immense difficulties of living of and away from your culture.”

Namita Gokhale, Chair of Judges
